Golden Bell Cover = Inverted Golden Bell Bath, Bright Moon Divine Skill Soars, Suppressin

Chapter 73 Golden Bell Cover = Inverted Golden Bell Bath, Bright Moon Divine Skill Soars, Suppressing and Killing Ice Fiend Guard!

With a crisp clang, the man in black felt a chilling force far exceeding his own Ice Profound Energy surge along the blade. His tiger's mouth split open instantly, the curved sword flew out of his hand, and his entire body was covered in frost, even his eyebrows turned white.

"impossible!"

Upon seeing this, the other men in black all had their pupils shrink. Their reputation was based on their cold strength, but now they had encountered an opponent who was even more skilled at controlling cold than they were.

"Attack together! Unleash your inner energy and form the Frostbite Killing Array!"

The leader, dressed in black, roared fiercely. The remaining nine immediately adjusted their formation, and the combined icy energy of the ten men condensed into a giant net of bluish-white mist, which descended upon Su Yang, attempting to trap him within and freeze him to death.

"A trivial skill!"

Su Yang let out a long laugh, unleashing his Bright Moon True Qi without reservation, instantly erecting a pale white true qi shield around his body. The icy mist of the Frost Killing Array collided with the shield, but instead of breaking through, it was frantically devoured by the swirling true qi on the shield.

[Moonlight Heart Technique Proficiency +5!]

[Moonlight Heart Technique Proficiency +8!]

[...]

The panel notification sounded one after another. The ice-cold energy that the men in black were desperately urging was completely swallowed by the vortex when it landed on Su Yang's Bright Moon True Qi shield, becoming his proficiency in improving the Bright Moon Heart Technique!

"what?"

"Let's practice and improve our skills first!"

Seeing his proficiency increase significantly, Su Yang had an idea. Instead of making a move, he activated his Bright Moon Qi Sea and used the protective shield to withstand their blade energy and cold air.

What he wanted was to drain the icy energy from the bodies of these men in black!

The men in black robes grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed. Although their Ice Profound Energy was not as cold and domineering as that of their young masters, it was still chilling and incredibly powerful. Ordinary martial artists would be injured upon contact with it. However, this person before them was like a bottomless abyss. No matter how much cold energy they poured out, it was all absorbed. Moreover, the aura on the other party's body was becoming stronger and stronger over time!

"Something's wrong! Let's retreat!"

The leader, dressed in black, finally realized something was wrong and roared sharply.

It's too late!

A cold glint flashed in Su Yang's eyes, and he no longer held back.

Each strike of his palm carried abundant Bright Moon True Qi. At this moment, he had absorbed a large amount of icy energy, greatly increasing his proficiency. The Bright Moon True Qi within his body became increasingly condensed, and its power surged!

"puff!"

"Snap!"

'

Screams rang out one after another. Those black-clad men who had exhausted their Ice Profound Energy were now powerless to fight back against him. In just a few breaths, all ten black-clad men who rushed towards Su Yang fell to the ground, their meridians either frozen and ruptured or their heart meridians shattered. None of them survived.

On the other side, the two men in black who were holding back the soldiers were thrown into disarray when they saw the main force being defeated in an instant. They used their agility to try to climb over the courtyard wall and escape.

Would Su Yang give them a chance?

With a light step, his figure swept across the courtyard like a shadow. Before the two could leap onto the wall, the cold mist at his fingertips suddenly condensed into two thin streams of cold air that shot out with piercing coldness, aiming precisely at the two men's backs!

"Swoosh! Swoosh!"

Two soft sounds rang out, and a chill penetrated their bodies, instantly freezing and rupturing their heart meridians and blood vessels. The two men in black robes shuddered violently, staggered, and fell heavily to the ground, dying without uttering a sound.

In just a few breaths, a thin layer of white frost covered the two corpses, with even their hair and eyelashes covered in tiny ice crystals, exuding a chilling aura.

Su Yang stepped forward and immediately recognized that the two men were trained as assassins; they were as tough as iron and would not utter a single word even under interrogation.

After dealing with the two men, Su Yang bent down and began to search the corpses, his gaze immediately locking onto the body of the leader, a man in black.

He reached into his pocket and rummaged around for a moment, then quickly touched a cold, hard object. He pulled it out and saw that it was a black token.

The token felt cold to the touch, neither gold nor jade. On the front was carved a crouching black tortoise, its shell pattern layered upon layered, resembling intricate hexagonal frost flowers, and exuding a chilling aura that shared the same origin as the icy true energy.

"Huh? This token—it's exactly the same as the one held by the tiger-masked man behind Liu Meng and Wang Jian!"

Su Yang's gaze sharpened, instantly connecting the previous clues. A cold glint flashed in his eyes: "So that's how it is! These men in black robes are in cahoots with the tiger-faced man! It seems we're making progress on the second volume of the Profound Water True Skill!"

Sudden.

Su Yang's brow twitched slightly, and the partially completed Bright Moon True Qi within his body began to circulate spontaneously. A faint, unfamiliar aura drifted into the courtyard on the night breeze, which he accurately detected.

Before he could turn his head, a clear female voice came from outside the courtyard gate, with a hint of laughter: "Commander Su's methods are excellent. He killed all twelve black-clad assassins of the Yuwen Clan with a mere wave of his hand. It is truly admirable."

Su Yang slowly turned his head, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He quietly tightened his grip on the Xuan Turtle Token with his right hand. He had already sensed someone approaching, but he didn't expect the other party to speak directly to him.

At the courtyard gate, a graceful figure in green stood, slender and with a jade pendant tied around her waist. She carried a long black bundle on her back. The night breeze blew, causing her skirt to flutter lightly, giving her an air of otherworldly elegance.

The woman was about twenty years old, with a beautiful and refined appearance, but her eyes held a sharp edge as she looked at the scene in the courtyard with a half-smile.

"Who are you?"

Su Yang asked in a deep voice, his Bright Moon True Qi already circulating quietly within him, ready to strike at any moment. He could clearly sense that this woman did not possess any icy aura, yet she faintly exuded an aura no weaker than his own, indicating that she was no ordinary person.

The woman in green slowly walked into the courtyard. Her gaze swept over the corpse covered in frost on the ground, then fell on the Xuan Turtle Token in Su Yang's hand. A hint of understanding flashed in her eyes. She then gave Su Yang a graceful bow: "I am Dugu Feng. I have long admired the name of Commander Su. Today I have come to pay my respects, firstly to offer my congratulations, and secondly to discuss a cooperation with Commander Su."

At this moment, Zhao Daqi, accompanied by several soldiers, drew his sword and stood protectively in front of Su Yang, shouting warily, "Who goes there?!"

"Sir, there's no need to be nervous."

Dugu Feng chuckled lightly, her tone calm, and said, "If I wanted to make a move, the best opportunity would have been when Su Ying was fighting to the death with the men in black, wouldn't you say?"

Su Yang raised his hand to stop Zhao Daqi, his gaze fixed intently on Dugu Feng, but his heart trembled violently, stirring up a monstrous wave.

Dugu Feng!

It was her!

In an instant, Su Yang recalled his memories of watching "Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" in his previous life—that woman with superb swordsmanship and heroic bearing, dressed in a stunning blue robe, with a fierce yet tender nature, was the white moonlight in the hearts of many.

Dugu Feng actually came to ask me for a collaboration.

What does this tell us?

Su Yang's heart jolted, and an indescribable surge of excitement welled up within him. This meant that... his strength was already enough to make powerful families take him seriously!

His expression remained impassive, his voice cold and calm: "Cooperation? I have no prior acquaintance with you, so what cooperation is there to speak of?"

Dugu Feng blinked, her smile widening: "Tonight, Su Yingzheng killed twelve black-clad assassins from the Yuwen Clan. Such a feat is enough to enrage the Yuwen Clan. They are vengeful and will certainly not let this go unpunished in the future."

She paused, gave Su Yang a deep look, and said, "As for me and the Yuwen Clan, we are already mortal enemies... The enemy of my enemy is my friend, isn't that right?"

Su Yang's eyes flickered slightly.

Seeing this, Dugu Feng smiled even more and, without keeping her in suspense any longer, reached behind her and untied a long, jet-black package.

With a flick of his wrist, the package shot through the air. Before it even hit the ground, a sharp cracking sound was heard as the package was torn apart by a blast of cold air!

Amidst the flying shreds of cloth, a long, dark sword suddenly appeared!

The blade was as black as jade, without any impurities, except for a winding ice dragon pattern engraved on the spine, which faintly gleamed with a cold silver light in the night.

The hilt is wrapped in dark black animal hide, providing a full grip. The guard is adorned with a ferocious ice-patterned beast head, exuding a chilling aura.

The entire knife exuded a chilling aura, its blade gleaming with a dark, jade-like light in the night. The blade trembled on its own, emitting a deep hum, like a ferocious beast lurking beneath the frigid abyss of the far north, waiting to be awakened by its master.

"This blade, named the Frost Abyss Blade, was acquired during my travels in the far north last year. Forged from icy crystals deep within the earth's frigid veins, it amplifies the power of icy true energy by thirty percent, cutting through iron like mud and even freezing an opponent's meridians."

Her tone was light and cheerful, with a hint of sincerity. As she spoke, she gripped the hilt of the sword, walked slowly to Su Yang, and handed him the long sword with both hands.

Su Yang did not reach out immediately. His gaze fell on the Cold Abyss Blade, and his fingertips clenched slightly.

He could clearly feel the chill emanating from the blade subtly attracting the Bright Moon True Qi within his body. That icy chill was not bone-chilling, but rather carried a clear and sharp edge, a perfect match for the attributes of his cultivation technique.

A fine sword is a gift to a hero. With increased strength, having a suitable weapon will make one even more powerful.

This Cold Abyss Blade truly suited his taste.

But there's no such thing as a free lunch. Dugu Feng's actions clearly indicated that he was certain Dugu Feng would accept his offer.
